Hadn't noticed the grapes, which is odd, now I think of it. Now I'm wondering how the growing of grapes would have fared during the War. AFAIK they grow pretty easily in (unheated) greenhouses, and don't actually take much ground space, so it seems wasteful to dig up productive vines ... But on the other hand, they might not have been seen as offering much bang to the (relatively small) buck, because most would have previously been used for jam. Damn, now I'm really curious!
(All irrelevant to the grapes in the book, if whassername's dad tells her to buy them for Mike.)
